It is basically HN Frontpage ranked using only votes from accounts over a year old. But what I would really like as Dang mentioned previously, was to add a query param so you can decide how ancient you want the contributing upvoters to be.
I much rather have the HN Front-page in the Pre-2012 era. There used to be a time when media wouldn't even quote the source as HackerNews but only mentioned it as "an Orange industry forum". They wouldn't even link to it. It is as if everyone have an unwritten agreement not to pollute it from outsiders.
Then came twitter, and then some 2014 US election, after that HN isn't the same anymore.
- omoikane 2y agoI think it's frontpage ranked by only users from 2009 and earlier: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26465569 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26465569 - HN front page ranked using only votes from early users (2009) But a similar thread from 2009 says: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=607271 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=607271 - HN Frontpage ranked using only votes from accounts over a year old I am not sure if the one year threshold is relative to current year, or fixed at 2009.
